Do you Check your Health Records each Month?

13 May 2016

As a reminder, it is highly recommended that patients login and view their health records at least twice a month. In today’s digital age there is a growing percentage of health data that is automatically imported into a patient’s health record. Lab results, pathology results and hospital systems commonly provide this automated electronic data feeds to electronic health record systems.
